EP 62: From Baseball to Insurance Entrepreneurship with Nicolas Lares

Nicolas Lares went from chasing a future in baseball to building companies in insurance. In Episode 62, he joins The G3X Podcast to share how curiosity, resilience, and faith helped him step away from one path and create another. Nicolas explains how he uses AI and automation as tools in his operation, how reinsurance and customer profit-sharing can create better alignment, and why long-term trust matters when building an insurance brand. He also shares how stacking skills, taking calculated risks, and trusting God's guidance have shaped his approach to business and life. --- Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction and Nicolas' background 01:31 Nicolas' journey from baseball to entrepreneurship 04:22 Discovering the startup world and AI 07:43 Transitioning from startup to insurance industry 09:55 Building a real estate insurance business 12:21 The importance of trust and reputation in insurance 16:30 Overcoming fears and family support 19:36 Faith and divine guidance in life and business 25:26 The value of stacking skills and taking risks 30:04 The role of AI and automation in Nicolas' business 36:25 How reinsurance and profit-sharing work in insurance 43:25 Building a long-term brand and trust 48:33 Faith, purpose, and giving glory to God 52:23 Advice for those in rebuilding seasons 54:23 Connecting with Nicolas Lares and final thoughts --- Nicolas Lares's links: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicolas-lares-77a328169/ Website: https://insur3tech.com --- New episodes drop every Friday at 10 AM EST.
